Overview

The "Destroy Lineup Marker" operation allows users to delete a specific lineup marker by its unique identifier. This node is useful in scenarios where markers representing positions, events, or annotations within a lineup need to be programmatically removed, such as cleaning up outdated markers or managing dynamic lineups in an application.

For example, if you have a sports team lineup with various markers indicating player positions or tactical notes, and one of these markers is no longer relevant, this operation can be used to remove it efficiently.

Properties

Name Meaning
Marker Id ID of the marker to destroy
  • Marker Id: A required numeric input specifying the unique identifier of the lineup marker that should be deleted.

Output

The output JSON will typically contain confirmation of the deletion action. It may include status information or details about the destroyed marker, depending on the underlying API response. The node does not output binary data.

Example output structure (conceptual):

{
  "success": true,
  "deletedMarkerId": 12345,
  "message": "Lineup marker successfully destroyed."
}

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the external service managing lineup markers.
  • Needs appropriate API authentication credentials configured in n8n to authorize the deletion request.
  • The node depends on the external API's ability to handle marker deletion requests.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Providing an invalid or non-existent Marker Id will likely result in an error indicating the marker could not be found.
    • Insufficient permissions or missing API credentials can cause authorization errors.
    • Network connectivity problems may prevent the node from reaching the external service.

  • Error messages and resolutions:

    • "Marker not found": Verify that the Marker Id is correct and that the marker exists.
    • "Unauthorized" or "Authentication failed": Check that the API credentials are correctly set up and valid.
    • Timeout or network errors: Ensure stable internet connection and that the external API endpoint is reachable.

Links and References

  • Refer to the external API documentation for lineup marker management for detailed information on marker deletion endpoints and expected responses.
  • Consult n8n documentation on setting up API credentials and handling HTTP request nodes for additional configuration guidance.
